Has Your Dog Cost You Money?

Ask a Question

Has your pet ever caused damage to your home that cost a lot to fix? 🐶

Has yours chewed up the new couch? nibbled the kitchen units? ripped up the pillows? or something more like broken a window?

My dog jumped at to greet a neighbour and put a hole in her Under Armour running leggings. Cost me £90 to replace them.

My dog has a thing for broken bits of tennis balls she finds in parks (where people are to lazy to throw them away). She got one bit stuck in her intestine which cost £800 and a lot of TLC to sort out😏

My girl went upstairs on the sly and ate a bag of chocolate gold coins, the string bag too. £450 in vets fees and half a head of grey hair later, she was fine but omg scared me to death.

I have been pretty lucky with the dogs i have had. My first did chew a pair of shoes but we had to learn to put things away. My westie did like eating the wall, luckily it was the utility wall so it didn’t really matter.

Our dog has wrecked the kitchen door, taken the paint off and starting to make scratches in the wood. No point getting a new one though.

I looked after a young Labrador for a friend once while they were on holiday.

On the first day he jumped up in the conservatory and got hold of some lilliput lane collector items on top of some furniture and chewed them all

Then not content with that he dragged a giant stuffed dog bed outside in the garden and tore it to pieces

It looked like it had been snowing with the stuffing everywhere

That was in the space of an hour while i was elsewhere in the house

Needless to say i never offered to look after him again

Not got a dog but our Domestic Shorthaired Torti Topaz was 10 months when she snapped her front paw & wasn't insured.

Springfield Vets rang me up asking if I could afford £2,000..NO I replied, can you afford 1,000 then?? I said probably..

After having her little paw wired & staying a few days at Vets Hospital final bill was £987.13.

We made sure our Torti & her brother were insured after that episode 10 years ago..

Topaz recovered well, no problems BUT please insure your pet, DON'T think because they're NOT pedigree you don't need to like me..

Topaz is our beautiful girl & gives us sooo much love & no money could buy her at any price.. x
